Ingredients

1 Cup rolled oats
3 tablespoon white chia seeds
3 tablespoon maple syrup
¾ Cup nut butter almond, cashew, peanut
½ cup dried cranberries
¼ Cup white chocolate chips
¼ cup pistachio nuts

Instructions

Place the rolled oats, maple syrup. nut butter and chia seeds in the food processor. Blitz quickly until combined
Add the cranberries, nuts, and chocolate chips, pulse until they are distributed evenly in the mix
Set the mix aside for 20 mins, this allows the chia seeds to gel a little and will mean the mix is easier to roll into balls
Scoop out tablespoonfuls and roll into balls (my tablespoons hold 15ml)
Refrigerate

Notes

Any nut butter can be used, in this recipe I find almond or cashew better as peanut butter is a little strong in flavour, but if you love peanut butter it still works
Refrigerate for up to 5 days or store in the freezer
In this recipe I have specified white chia seeds as they look a little prettier with the light coloured ingredients, but black chia seeds will work just as well
